what NOW?!?!?

for my cloth book I've printed a bunch of images on lazertran so i don''t have to sew quite so much.

the sewing's getting hard. the more dolls and other stuff get sewn on the harder it is to put the next thing on, I've taken to rolling up the dolls etc in the sides of the book like a scroll and pinning them with clothes pins so i can move the sides through the sewing machine without destroying the things already sewed.

i was sewing a doll's clothes on, watching the little thumb twist screw that holds the needle on bumping into the doll's head. I watch carefully, worried that it was going to ruin the doll's head. well it all went fine, i finished that and moved on to sew on the next then when BANG! CRACK! POW!

the sewing needle starts to fall out.

I stopped the machine pronto and nothing got broken but it sure came close!

the little thumb screw had slowly been unscrewed by bumping into the doll's head.

every step is an adventure!

it's so absured it's funny all the things i can stumble accross to break!
